+1 on the RP-1 and Mullards from Andy. It's what I run and been very happy with the setup. I originally had the PS Audio Stellar 300 as the amp (tube class D combo). Got a good deal on a Quad Artera A/B and swapped to that just to try. Quad/RP-1 might be a little warmer for the most critical listener but the S-300 was a good combo as well, especially at low to moderate listening levels.
Benchmark / Anthem / Rogue
I have an opportunity to purchase (new) one of these 3 preamps at a solid discount. I’m looking to see who has had hands-on experience with one or more of them, and your input & feedback on each. All commentary welcome. Thank you.
